Plants make food in their leaves. The leaves contain a pigment called chlorophyll, which colors the leaves green. Chlorophyll can make food the plant can use from carbon dioxide, water, nutrients, and energy from sunlight. This process is called photosynthesis.
1 Chlorophyll is the chemical that makes plants green. 2  Green plants need these things in order to grow and make their own energy and food: 3  Water. 4  Minerals. 5  Sunlight. 6  Carbon Dioxide. 7  Chlorophyll. 8  If plants do not get sunlight, they cannot produce chlorophyll and they will lose their green color and eventually die.
